Only 38% of the hosts’ home games this season have produced over 2.5 goals and only 38% of Belenenses’ away games have seen both teams score, which provides further reason to back a 1-0 win for Gil Vicente this weekend. Gil Vicente have only scored 11 goals at home this season but they have only conceded 6 goals during that period while Belenenses have only netted 6 times on the road and have conceded 13 goals.
Even if the season finishes and PSG win the Champions League, they will still be attacked for Mbappe in the summer.

Joe Lolley's early long-range strike had looked to be enough to settle the match and take the Reds up to third in the Championship and within four points of the top two. The Rams defence backed off as Lolley gained possession wide on the right and the winger made the most of the relative freedom at an eerily quiet Pride Park, striding forward and finding the far corner with a measured shot that deceived keeper Ben Hamer.
Begovic, 32, has played 62 times for Bournemouth after joining them from Chelsea in 2017. The Bosnian has fallen out of favour and spent the early part of this season on loan in Azerbaijan with Qarabag. Aaron Ramsdale, 21, has been first choice goalkeeper for Eddie Howe this season, with Mark Travers, 20, chosen when he was unavailable. Arsenal moved three points clear at the top of the Women's Super League with a straightforward win over Brighton.
Winning a world title is always appreciated but this isn't the way to crown a champion, improvements are needed. That being said, this should be a good final to decide the 'best club' in the world. Liverpool didn't have it all their own way against Monterrey and to be fair the game against Leicester on Boxing Day is far more important than this one. The absence of Virgil van Dijk won't help them against Flamengo. The Brazilians struggled against El Hilal so that doesn't bode too well for them here. A bet on both teams to score is the suggested bet.
It's his first home and he must return there in the future, but as of today, Xavi is the coach of Al Sadd," said Al-Ali in a club statement.

We know that a club with the size and professionalism of Barcelona will take to official channels to speak of such matters. Xavi left Barcelona as a player after 17 years at the Catalan club in 2015, joining Al Sadd for four seasons before retiring and becoming the club's manager for the 2019-20 season.

Juve are hoping that Van Dijk will leave Liverpool after adding the Premier League trophy to his list of accolades at Anfield. The 28-year-old has already won the Champions League, European Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup with the Reds, so the Serie A side plan to offer him a new challenge this summer.
For me, this is one of the matches where I see a lot of goals, in Italian Serie A today, even this is a league, where teams are mostly playing with stronger defense and that is the fact. So, Torino is one of the teams who is very dangerous this season for all us who are betting. When they are not favorites, they are make great results, against stronger rivals, like it was the case against Roma, few days ago (2-0), but when they are favorites, they are making mistakes. Bologna is better and better in every round, so they will score here surely.

Currently the home team CD Lugo is showing signs of improving the game quite well; with 5 consecutive unbeaten matches with 2 wins and 3 draws. However, that also could not help them escape the dangerous group. After 31 matches, the CD Lugo ranked 20th in the rankings with 34 points.

Al Mojzel will host Ohod for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the visitors have a real chance to get all three points in this game. Ohod is very average team in this season. However, they have better team than their opponent. I believe, the visitors are better team at all segments. Also, we have Al Mojzel whos 's is worst team in the league. Hosts are currently bottom of the table. They have a poor results. They earned only 1 point in their last 5 matches. In any case, the hosts were weaker team. They have little chance to win. I think, Ohod will closer to victory.
With seven points separating these sides in the table and Leganes winless on the road this term, odds of around 6/4 for a Valladolid win at Jose Zorrilla this Friday night certainly look generous at first glance.
